I'll take a whiff of that fog to cool things down from our interior heat. Don't miss the dampness and not being able to see too far while driving but the redwoods and the swirling fog brings a bit of nostalgia.

This picture reminds me of when I lived in San Rafael... sometimes in the Summer it go so hot that I had to jump in my little car and head down South to cool down a little. As soon as you approach Tam Valley Junction (if memory serves) and make that right turn, things start to cool down considerably and by the time you get to the Muir Beach you almost need a sweater!

Lovely Wife and I have been "drive takers" since way before we got married. Our favorites have always been smaller, winding, hilly roads (back when we lived where there were hills, and my first thought at the top one of these was "Man! I would LOVE to slowly mosey down that road with Lovely Wife, and the windows down.
